The spiritual insights of the Upanishads are an exception to the tyranny of time. Subsequent scientific advances have not only affected their truth-value but have, on the contrary, only helped to reveal the rational basis of their insights and enhanced their spiritual appeal. This is no wonder, because these insights are the products of an equally scientific investigation into a different field of experience, namely, the world of man’s inner life.
The Message of the Upaniṣads: An Exposition of the Upaniṣads in the Light of Modern Thought and Modern Needs Reviews
-
Reading Swami Ranganathananda's book is extreme pleasure as it lift your mind over mundane affairs. This book is compilation of lectures of Swamiji based on three major Upanishads such as Isha, Kena and Katha.
Further, apart from entire book, one of the major attraction is appendix. Reading the conversation between renowned biologist Mr.Julian Huxley and Swamiji is thrilling. Swamiji bombarded arguments of Julian point by point and ultimately Mr.Julian declared that few issues he could not agree with him no more.
In addition one can get opportunity to get acquainted with few great books like Philosophy of Physical Science by Arthur Eddington, The Vedantic Buddhism by Jennings, Science in the modern world by Whitehead, The Living Brain by G.Walter etc. -
